Advertising in Telegram is quite common however, it can lead to dissatisfaction among the users. The satisfying news to the users is that there are many ways to remove the ads appearing and removing the irritating feature of the ads completely. Advertisements in Telegram appear in the form of invitations to various channels and groups. The application is designed in such a way that if people whom you interact with, have your phone number, they can directly provide your number to different groups and channels even without your permission. This can be very disturbing to the users especially when random messages inviting you to join such channels are increasingly reaching you.
Steps to remove Telegram Ads
The messenger has an inbuilt option to help you to prevent these disturbing invitations from reaching you directly. The following steps can be noted to remove these ads,
- Open the Telegram application
- Go to the privacy and security option

However, these steps can only ensure that anyone from outside your contacts list cannot access you directly to the different channels. This indicates that anyone in your contact list can still add you to groups. People can often view this as a way to add multiple members to many channels to increase their user base. The user can take note of the following steps to further add privacy to decide who all can add you to the groups.
